From the blog:

Show me that smile again! This Thanksgiving, share the laughter and love with the Seaver family as Antenna TV airs the "All of Growing Pains Thanksgiving Weekend Marathon."

Growing Pains sucks. Plus I hate Kirk Cameron.

Don't care for marathons no matter what the show is. I have my own personal Thanksgiving TV schedule planned out thanks to my DVD Collection.

Welp guess I'll be watching whatever's on Laff, GetTV, H&I and Cozi on those days.

It’s a show I’d like to check out but the credit crunch on Antenna ruins it for me so I will definitely not be watching.

Yeah, I'm not a big fan either!! :confused:Like Family Ties, Growing pains for the most part is a boring show! IMO, both shows only have a handful of good eps.and the rest are pretty much blah! :p:

I don't plan on watching this marathon!:wave:

I'm not a fan either, but I do enjoy Growing Pains. It's a good, entertaining show from the 80s that I like, and it's much better than crap like Gimme a Break from the 80s. Even Small Wonder looks like a masterpiece of a sitcom in comparison to Gimme a Break, so there ya go.

I'm surprised that the two TV movies aren't being shown.

I think it's because they aren't part of the Growing Pains package deal. Maybe someone else has it. Antenna didn't get the Family Ties TV movie or the Sabrina the Teenage Witch TV movies, but Decades showed them when they did a TV movie binge so who knows.

It's most likely going to be just the episodes and that's it.

It is going to be the episodes only.

There could've been potential for the movies, but they just aren't part of the current package.

If I had a dollar for every time someone made a post about how they'd watch a channel if it didn't credit crunch, I'd be rich enough to buy this site.
